The next morning I woke up and looked around to find myself in manik's room making me realize what happened last night. I got up and saw Manik and myra sleeping cuddling making me smile. Myra's face was against manik's arm making me smile. They both had one leg up sleeping the same way.
I took a couple pictured of both of them, they just looked so cute that I couldn't resist. I kissed myra's head and covered her and Manik with blankets fixing the pillow beside her.
I walked to my room and showered. I knew it was Sunday so Martha wouldn't be around since she had told me she gets Sunday's off. I walked to the kitchen and grabbed some juice in a glass. I sat down on the kitchen counter staring outside from the window
Life was very unpredictable, I ran from home to escape abuses, being name called, being abused and here I was back to it again. The only thing that was changed was I had a little kiddo who I will live for. Prior to this I didn't have a reason to live but now I do.
I smiled remembering how myra calls me Mumma or Nanini. She has this smile which is the exact copy of manik's smile but her smile lights up my world.
It was 11 when I got up from the counter and walked upstairs to get myra ready, I was thinking of taking her to the park today. When I entered the room I found myra stirring in her sleep while Manik wasn't beside her so I knew he was in the shower.
I sat down beside myra and caressed her cheeks, she leaned into my touch making me smile
"Wakey wakey eggs and bakey" I whispered kissing her cheek
"Mumma" her voice is so cute when she is sleepy
"Hi baby"
"Good morning" she whispered
"Good morning bachata, its time to wake up"
"No myra sleep" she said with her face in my lap
"Baby its so late and I was thinking we could maybe go to the park today" I said and she jumped up rubbing her eyes
"Palk"she asked and I nodded
'With lots of swings and slides"
"Yes yes lets go" she said jumping up on the bed
"Haha now you wanna get up" I teased and she gave me such a cute smile
"Mumma" she wined falling on me
"Myra"
"Mumma"
"Myra"
"Hehehe mumma" she giggled making me smile
"Papa papa palk" myra said running towards Manik as soon as he came out of the bathroom. I had to grab her arm so she doesn't fall off the bed
"Careful" I said placing her on the floor
She ran to Manik and he picked her up throwing her up in the air. It was such a beautiful sight to see them both smiling and giggling, I love seeing them both happy.
"Park park" she said
"And who is taking you to the park" he asked
"Mumma" she said and I smiled at her
"Then you should get ready baby" he said and she nodded
"Good morning papa" she said kissing his cheek
"Morning baby" he kissed her head
"Mumma ready" she said and I nodded
He gave me myra and was about to say something but I walked to the bathroom taking a towel for myra.
"Bath" I asked her and she nodded with her little brush in her mouth as she tried brushing her teeth
"Does my baby want to wear blue today" I asked and she shook her head
"Black" she said and I nodded
"Mumma" she said when I placed her in the bath
"Hanji"
"Alia will not come back" she asked looking in my eyes
"No darling she will not and if she does papa and I are here right. You trust us?" I asked
"I tlust papa and mumma" she said
"Then don't worry okay" I said and she nodded but looked down
"What's wrong" I asked
"Papa sad" she asked
"No baby he is not sad why do you ask"
"Alia" she said
"So you think papa is sad because alia came in yesterday" I asked and she nodded
"Papa is not sad baby, he is just adjusting with everything. You know na yesterday papa and I got married so it is different for papa and I. It will take a little bit to adjust together but papa isn't sad baby"
she listened to every single word I said and then nodded after a minute. I know she only got part of it but that's okay
"You understand right baby" she nodded
"Mumma papa stay with myra forever" she asked
"Yes baby" she smiled hearing this
I wrapped her in her little pink towel and brought her to bed. I laid her down and she was talking to manik now about I don't know what. I grabbed her clothes and put her in this white and black dress, she looked adorable. I placed her in my lap and did her hair into little pigtail braids.
"Papa how I look" she asked when I put her down
"So pretty baby" he siad kissing her cheeks
I walked downstairs and made some breakfast for the three of us. I made us parantas but for myra I cut them into star shaped so she is more likely to eat.
"Breakfast" I yelled and they both came down, manik was not matching with myra and I both because I was wearing a cream crop tee with black jeans while he wore black sweats and a white tee as well.
In an ideal world I would have gushed over the fact that manik and I are matching and the fact that he is my husband but everything he spoke last night hurt me a lot. He doesnt owe me an apology or an explanation for why he did that but I wish he let me explain then again he doesnt want to hear.
"Star" myra said seeing the pararanta
"Yes stars, you like them right" I asked and she nodded smiling
I put on tom and jerry on the tv and fed her while feeding myself. I saw manik glancing over a couple times but I was not in the state of mind to even look at him without remembering what he had said last night.
"Is it okay if I take myra to the park" I asked, eyes still glued to myra
"Ya, ill come with" he said
"Okay" I said
Once we finished breakfast, I put myra's shoes on along with my sandals to get ready for the park. I knew the park was about a 15 minute walk but I didn't know if myra would get tired by the end so I was just going to book a cab.
"No need to book a cab" he said probably seeing what I'm doing from over my shoulder
"She might tired its a long walk for her" I said
"Im driving" he said
